Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.The implementation of visual deterrents (i.e., Foxlights) proved to be effective in reducing the number of night‐time livestock depredations by both snow leopards and wolves. ABSTRACT The decline of large carnivores and the overabundance of livestock practices contribute significantly to ecosystem degradation.

Warming reduces the quality of forage resources in a Colorado meadow ecosystem
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Rangelands provide ecosystem services that support approximately 30% of the human population. To maintain sustainable forage resources for animals in grasslands, it is essential to manage grazing pressures by adapting to changes in the quantity and nutritional quality of vegetation affected by climate change and subsequent shifts in plant ...

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.Land cover and elevation are shown to influence the proportion of stream source waters across glacial and non‐glacial streams. Groundwater makes up a large proportion of both early season and late season flow in most glacial and non‐glacial streams, while the timing of snow and ice melt is driven by the presence or absence of a glacier within the ...

Behavioral responses of black bears to human presence and infrastructure in Yosemite National Park
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.Using GPS collar data from black bears in Yosemite National Park, we examined how bear spatiotemporal activity in relation to human development shifted during the COVID‐19 park closure in 2020. In the absence of visitors, bears maintained consistent landscape‐scale space use but altered fine‐scale spatial and temporal behaviors.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.During an outbreak of 7 wildfires in eastern Oregon, USA, we analyzed the home range and movement patterns of mule deer and elk before, during, and immediately after wildfires. Mule deer maintained high site fidelity during the wildfire but used their home range more uniformly and had higher daily displacement than deer unaffected by wildfire.
